A new phone app uses vibrations (振动) from smart phones to alert people about earthquakes.
The phone app recognizes sudden shaking of the earth’s surface through sensors (传感器) in smart phones. The new app is called MyShake. It is the work of four researchers at the University of California, Berkeley. They said they created a worldwide warning system that would inform people and give them time to prepare. The MyShake app is available only for Android phones.
Smart phones are equipped with accelerometers (加速计) . These instruments measure movement, like that of a car or airplane. They can also measure the shaking of a machine, building or other structure. Accelerometers are used in activity trackers and apps that count steps or other exercise. They are also used in global positioning system (GPS) apps.
MyShake uses phone accelerometers to measure seismic (地震引起的) activity. It has been programmed to know the difference between normal activity and earthquake movement. The software developers say their app is right 93 percent of the time. A smart phone sends seismic information to the app developers. If the developers receive information from one area, it recognizes that an earthquake may be taking place or will take place soon. Using information sent from the app, the network then estimates the location and strength of the quake in real time. MyShake can record magnitude (规模) 5. 0 earthquakes at distances of 10 kilometers or less. MyShake uses very little power, according to its developers. Only when seismic activity is sensed by the app does it become active and sends data to the network.
The app works best when your phone is resting on a flat surface, like a table. The app also shows ways to stay safer during an earthquake. The developers say it will become more effective as more people use it.
4. What can we know about MyShake
A. It can be applied to all kinds of phones.
B. It serves as a worldwide warning system.
C. It’s the name of a new smart phone.
D. It can prevent and stop the movement of the earth.
5. How can the phone app feel the earth’s shaking
A. Through vibrations from smart phones.
B. Through information in smart phones.
C. Through sensors in smart phones.
D. Through accelerometers in smart phones.
6. Why are accelerometers used in MyShake
A. To locate where the user is. B. To count steps or other exercise.
C. To measure seismic activity. D. To measure the shaking of building.
7. What’s the best title for the text
A. A New Phone App Feels Earthquakes
B. A New Phone App Prevents Earthquakes
C. A New Phone App Keeps You Safe in the Earthquake
D. A New Phone App Makes Smart Phones More Effective
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. A

Since my son went to college in Chicago, I made quarterly trips there for the next three years. My friend George was a cook there and he knew many outstanding restaurants. One of them was a Chinese restaurant called The Bird. It was owned and operated by Chef Benny Moy who happened to be an old friend of George’s.
The dishes Benny prepared were unique, and everything was in his mind when he was cooking. Just by changing, adding or removing an ingredient or two, he could come up with an entirely new dish.
As a fan of Chinese food, I was always attracted by its recipes. After a year went by, I finally gathered the courage to ask Benny if I could spend a week learning cooking in his restaurant kitchen. To my joy, he agreed readily.
I was very nervous the first day I showed up. But I didn’t have to wait long to find out how I would start. “Put on this jacket, go over to the stove and clean the two woks (锅) there,” he said. I was excited. What a beginning; I was allowed to clean the master’s woks.
Then things just seemed to fall into place. Benny was very concentrated when he was doing prep work or cooking. I would just follow him around, trying very hard not to get in his way. Besides, I would talk into my hand-held recorder to document everything he did; in effect, I had all his recipes. He had a teaching style that was all his own. And I just watched and learned everything he did by heart.
At the end of the week, when my time in the kitchen was over, I came away feeling that I have had the most exciting, unusual, unique cooking experiences. Plus, now I know how to cook Benny’s most-known dish: Moo shu pork.
8. What are Benny’s dishes like
A. Terrible B. Healthy C. Creative D. Typical
9. What did the author decide to do after knowing Benny for a year
A To help Benny out in his restaurant. B. To learn cooking from Benny.
C. To take a cooking course. D. To become a chef himself.
10. How did the author get all of Benny’s recipes
A. By talking with Benny. B. By observing and taking notes.
C. By asking Benny to give them to him. D. By recording Benny’s steps in cooking.
11. How did the author feel about his experiences of learning from Benny
A. Awkward B. Hopeful C. Strange D. Content
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者学习烹饪的经过。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Just by changing, adding or subtracting (去掉) an ingredient or two, he could come up with an entirely new dish. (只要改变、增加或减少一两种食材,他就能做出一道全新的菜肴)”可知,Benny的菜有创意。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“After a year went by, I finally gathered the courage to ask Benny if I could spend a week learning cooking in his restaurant kitchen. (一年过去了,我终于鼓起勇气问本尼我能不能花一个星期的时间在他餐厅的厨房里学习烹饪)”可知,认识本尼一年后,作者决定向本尼学习烹饪。故选B。

Plus, now I know how to cook Benny’s most-known dish: Moo shu pork. (周末,当我在厨房的时间结束时,我离开了,感觉我有了最令人兴奋的,不寻常的,独特的烹饪经历。而且,现在我知道怎么做本尼最著名的菜:木须肉)”可推知,作者感到满足。故选D。

Robert Hayden was an African-American poet. He was best known for his poem Those Winter Sundays, which was written in 1962. It describes the poet’s memories of his father, narrating that despite the distance between them, there was a kind of love, real and invisible, shown by the father’s efforts to improve his son’s life. The poem shows how Hayden’s view about his father’s love has changed, and that his understanding of it has actually gotten deeper as the years have gone by; eventually the poet starts to appreciate the selflessness of these parental actions, while feeling a sense of regret for not having ever thanked him for what he has done.
The main symbol in the poem is temperature. Imagery such as “blue-black cold” makes the reader aware of the cold temperature. However, soon in the poem, it becomes warm and words such as “fires burn” heighten this image. The difference in the temperature outside and inside the house shows the author’s relationship with his father.
Robert Hayden was born in Detroit, Michigan, in August, 1913. As a noticeably small child with poor eyesight, Hayden often found great comfort in literature, becoming fond of poetry. After graduating from high school, he attended Detroit City College. Before long, he left college in 1936 to begin working for the Federal Writers’ Project (FWP). Hayden spent time there researching African-American history and folk culture subjects that would inspire and influence his poetic work. After marrying Erma Inez Morris in 1940, he published his first collection of poetry Heart-Shape in the Dust in the same year.
Hayden returned to the University of Michigan for higher education after the publication of his first book. W. H. Auden, a poet and professor, became a major influence on Hayden’s work, guiding him through matters of poetic form and technique. In his later years, Hayden continued to write and publish poetry. In 1976, he became the first African American to serve as Poet Laureate (桂冠诗人).
12. What is the poem Those Winter Sundays about
A. The father-son relationship. B. The author’s love for winters.
C. The family values in the 1960s. D. The life of African Americans.
13. What does the underlined word “heighten” mean in the second paragraph
A. charge. B. improve.
C. record. D. pick.
14. What can we know about Robert Hayden from Paragraph 3
A. He was born with poor eyesight.
B. He inspired others to pick up poetry.
C. He showed interest in poems in childhood.
D. He studied African-American history in college.
15. What influenced Hayden’s poetry most
A. His experience of working for FWP. B. The help from Professor W. H. Auden.
C. The encouragement from his family. D. His decision to receive higher education.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了非裔美国诗人罗伯特·海登。
【12题详解】

(它描述了诗人对父亲的回忆,叙述了尽管他们之间距离遥远,但有一种真实而无形的爱,表现在父亲为改善儿子的生活所做的努力上。)”可知,《那些冬日的星期天》这首诗讲述的是父子情。故选A。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段划线词前半句“However, soon in the poem, it becomes warm and words (然而,在这首诗中,它很快变得温暖起来)”和后句“The difference in the temperature outside and inside the house shows the author’s relationship with his father.(房子内外的温差显示了作者与父亲的关系。)”可知,房子内变得暖和起来,而“火在燃烧”等词强化了这种形象,所以heighten为“改善,提高”之意。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“As a noticeably small child with poor eyesight, Hayden often found great comfort in literature, becoming fond of poetry.(作为一个明显的小孩子,海登的视力很差,他经常在文学中找到很大的安慰,开始喜欢上诗歌。)”可知,罗伯特·海登从小喜欢诗歌。故选C。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“W. H. Auden, a poet and professor, became a major influence on Hayden’s work, guiding him through matters of poetic form and technique.(诗人兼教授W·H·奥登对海登的作品产生了重大影响,指导他学习诗歌的形式和技巧。)”可知,奥登在诗歌方面对海登的影响最大。故选B。

3.so→but
4.decide→decided
5.people后添加to
6.say→saying
7.Where→When
8.very→so
9.time→times
10.去掉more
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者通过在网上发帖,帮助父亲的面包店生意变好的故事。
【详解】1.考查非谓语动词。句意:五年前,我妈妈生病了,我爸爸不得不放弃他的面包生意。此处为短语have to do sth.,表示“不得不做某事”。不定式后用动词原形。故gave改为give。
2.考查副词。句意:他努力地开店,把一切都准备好了,但是没有一个人来买面包。修饰动词work,表示“努力地”应用副词hard;hardly表示“几乎不”不符合语境。故hardly改为hard。
3.考查连词。句意:他努力地开店,把一切都准备好了,但是没有一个人来买面包。上文提到努力开店把一切都准备好,后文提到没有人来买面包,前后为转折关系,应用连词but。故so改为but。
4.考查动词时态。句意:我决定鼓励人们去商店买些面包,让爸爸高兴起来。结合上文可知事情发生在过去,应用一般过去时。故decide改为decided。
5.考查固定短语。句意:我决定鼓励人们去商店买些面包,让爸爸高兴起来。结合句意表示“鼓励某人做某事”可知短语为encourage sb. to do sth.。故people后添加to。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意:所以我在网上发了一个帖子说,“我爸爸很伤心,因为没有人来他的新面包店。”分析句子结构可知say在句中应用非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语post构成主动关系,故用现在分词作状语。故say改为saying。
7.考查状语从句。句意:第二天,当我来到爸爸的商店时,队伍排得很长,人们都站在外面。引导时间状语从句,表示“当……时候”应用when。故Where改为When。
8.考查副词。句意:第二天,当我来到爸爸的商店时,队伍排得很长,人们都站在外面。修饰后文形容词long应用副词so,构成so…that…引导结果状语从句。故very改为so。
9.考查名词的数。句意:我的帖子被分享了很多次,我爸爸的生意很快就比我预想的要大得多。time表示“次数”为可数名词,由many修饰应用复数形式。故time改为times。
10.考查比较级。句意:我的帖子被分享了很多次,我爸爸的生意很快就比我预想的要大得多。bigger已经为比较级形式,前面不再需要more。故去掉more。

A new phone app uses vibrations (振动) from smart phones to alert people about earthquakes.
The phone app recognizes sudden shaking of the earth’s surface through sensors (传感器) in smart phones. The new app is called MyShake. It is the work of four researchers at the University of California, Berkeley. They said they created a worldwide warning system that would inform people and give them time to prepare. The MyShake app is available only for Android phones.
Smart phones are equipped with accelerometers (加速计) . These instruments measure movement, like that of a car or airplane. They can also measure the shaking of a machine, building or other structure. Accelerometers are used in activity trackers and apps that count steps or other exercise. They are also used in global positioning system (GPS) apps.
MyShake uses phone accelerometers to measure seismic (地震引起的) activity. It has been programmed to know the difference between normal activity and earthquake movement. The software developers say their app is right 93 percent of the time. A smart phone sends seismic information to the app developers. If the developers receive information from one area, it recognizes that an earthquake may be taking place or will take place soon. Using information sent from the app, the network then estimates the location and strength of the quake in real time. MyShake can record magnitude (规模) 5. 0 earthquakes at distances of 10 kilometers or less. MyShake uses very little power, according to its developers. Only when seismic activity is sensed by the app does it become active and sends data to the network.
The app works best when your phone is resting on a flat surface, like a table. The app also shows ways to stay safer during an earthquake. The developers say it will become more effective as more people use it.
4. What can we know about MyShake
A. It can be applied to all kinds of phones.
B. It serves as a worldwide warning system.
C. It’s the name of a new smart phone.
D. It can prevent and stop the movement of the earth.
5. How can the phone app feel the earth’s shaking
A. Through vibrations from smart phones.
B. Through information in smart phones.
C. Through sensors in smart phones.
D. Through accelerometers in smart phones.
6. Why are accelerometers used in MyShake
A. To locate where the user is. B. To count steps or other exercise.
C. To measure seismic activity. D. To measure the shaking of building.
7. What’s the best title for the text
A. A New Phone App Feels Earthquakes
B. A New Phone App Prevents Earthquakes
C. A New Phone App Keeps You Safe in the Earthquake
D. A New Phone App Makes Smart Phones More Effective
C
Since my son went to college in Chicago, I made quarterly trips there for the next three years. My friend George was a cook there and he knew many outstanding restaurants. One of them was a Chinese restaurant called The Bird. It was owned and operated by Chef Benny Moy who happened to be an old friend of George’s.
The dishes Benny prepared were unique, and everything was in his mind when he was cooking. Just by changing, adding or removing an ingredient or two, he could come up with an entirely new dish.
As a fan of Chinese food, I was always attracted by its recipes. After a year went by, I finally gathered the courage to ask Benny if I could spend a week learning cooking in his restaurant kitchen. To my joy, he agreed readily.
I was very nervous the first day I showed up. But I didn’t have to wait long to find out how I would start. “Put on this jacket, go over to the stove and clean the two woks (锅) there,” he said. I was excited. What a beginning; I was allowed to clean the master’s woks.
Then things just seemed to fall into place. Benny was very concentrated when he was doing prep work or cooking. I would just follow him around, trying very hard not to get in his way. Besides, I would talk into my hand-held recorder to document everything he did; in effect, I had all his recipes. He had a teaching style that was all his own. And I just watched and learned everything he did by heart.
At the end of the week, when my time in the kitchen was over, I came away feeling that I have had the most exciting, unusual, unique cooking experiences. Plus, now I know how to cook Benny’s most-known dish: Moo shu pork.
8. What are Benny’s dishes like
A. Terrible B. Healthy C. Creative D. Typical
9. What did the author decide to do after knowing Benny for a year

A. By talking with Benny. B. By observing and taking notes.
C. By asking Benny to give them to him. D. By recording Benny’s steps in cooking.
11. How did the author feel about his experiences of learning from Benny
A. Awkward B. Hopeful C. Strange D. Content

Robert Hayden was an African-American poet. He was best known for his poem Those Winter Sundays, which was written in 1962. It describes the poet’s memories of his father, narrating that despite the distance between them, there was a kind of love, real and invisible, shown by the father’s efforts to improve his son’s life. The poem shows how Hayden’s view about his father’s love has changed, and that his understanding of it has actually gotten deeper as the years have gone by; eventually the poet starts to appreciate the selflessness of these parental actions, while feeling a sense of regret for not having ever thanked him for what he has done.
The main symbol in the poem is temperature. Imagery such as “blue-black cold” makes the reader aware of the cold temperature. However, soon in the poem, it becomes warm and words such as “fires burn” heighten this image. The difference in the temperature outside and inside the house shows the author’s relationship with his father.
Robert Hayden was born in Detroit, Michigan, in August, 1913. As a noticeably small child with poor eyesight, Hayden often found great comfort in literature, becoming fond of poetry. After graduating from high school, he attended Detroit City College. Before long, he left college in 1936 to begin working for the Federal Writers’ Project (FWP). Hayden spent time there researching African-American history and folk culture subjects that would inspire and influence his poetic work. After marrying Erma Inez Morris in 1940, he published his first collection of poetry Heart-Shape in the Dust in the same year.
Hayden returned to the University of Michigan for higher education after the publication of his first book. W. H. Auden, a poet and professor, became a major influence on Hayden’s work, guiding him through matters of poetic form and technique. In his later years, Hayden continued to write and publish poetry. In 1976, he became the first African American to serve as Poet Laureate (桂冠诗人).
12. What is the poem Those Winter Sundays about
A. The father-son relationship. B. The author’s love for winters.
C. The family values in the 1960s. D. The life of African Americans.
13. What does the underlined word “heighten” mean in the second paragraph
A. charge. B. improve.
C. record. D. pick.
14. What can we know about Robert Hayden from Paragraph 3
A. He was born with poor eyesight.
B. He inspired others to pick up poetry.
C. He showed interest in poems in childhood.
D. He studied African-American history in college.
15. What influenced Hayden’s poetry most
A. His experience of working for FWP. B. The help from Professor W. H. Auden.
C. The encouragement from his family. D. His decision to receive higher education.
